Please check this one, it moves storing mmu_cr4 to arch_prepare_suspend.

[PATCH -v5] x86: Save cr4 to mmu_cr4_features at boot time

Save cr4 to mmu_cr4_features at boot time

Michael reported 2.6.38.2 hibernation is broken by one backported patch.
it cause a freeze when resuming from hibernation

| "x86: Cleanup highmap after brk is concluded"
| commit id e5f15b45ddf3afa2bbbb10c7ea34fb32b6de0a0e.

it turns out the mmu_cr4 save it lost somehow.

-v3: read back cr4 for 32bit too according to HPA
-v4: use cpuid_level to check if we can read cr4 according to HPA
      don't touch mmu_cr4_features if CONFIG_HIBERNATION is defined from Yinghai
-v5: reduce the using of CONFIG_HIBERNATION
